Patrice

Mentor · Speaker · Leadership Coach

With a career spanning Head of Creative for an ASX200 property fund to keynotes and workshops for thousands of leaders, Patrice brings grounded, real-world tools for confidence, clarity and self-trust. Known for straight-talk wisdom and emotional intelligence - no fluff, no performance.

I’ve been finding my voice on stage since I was a kid. I was a state debater at Gulgong Primary School and I haven’t stopped talking since.

In the past six years I’ve worked with thousands of women. That’s at Ladies Who Lead workshops across NSW and QLD, 500+ in leadership masterclasses and thousands more through keynotes and large-group events.

What drives me is simple: the country runs on its women. Women who speak up and back themselves change everything around them, from families and farm businesses to whole communities.
